Sebring 2009...who will be attending?
 
I just got my Sebring Corvette Corral tickets in the mail yesterday! So who will be attending in the Corral or not? How many days? I'll be there on Wednesday, most likely Friday, and of course on Saturday.

I'll be at the race, but I won't be bringing the vette. I have to take my truck for our chase vehicle. If you get bored, head over to the outside of turn one. Spots 69 & 70! Or keep an eye out for the SebringFans.com banners. :thumbsup:

Keep an eye out for this dude...

I ordered the tickets but havent received them yet. I dont know which vet I will be taking the 66 or the 04 it depends on the weather. I would love to be able to do a prerace lap in the 66. I have done it before in my other vetts. I will look for you maybe we all can park near each other. I can wait its a great race with plenty to see.

What is the event? who is putting it on? and Dates?

Thanks

Eddie

We will be there, have corral tickets but will be coming down in the motorhome. The bad thing is that we will be making the trip twice in two weeks. We will be there the first weekend March running with HSR, go home and almost turn around and go right back. I am getting to know Sebring real well.:thumbsup:

Z06 Rocket 03-17-2009 09:41 PM

I called and could not get tickets to the Corvette Corral. They said I had to buy only at the gate and take my chances, but they did not think it was sold out. Anyone know any different information? The info I got was from the Sebring ticket office. I don't want to drive over there on a whim,,, I may just skip it all together.....

Scully 03-18-2009 08:02 AM

:wavey: same thing happened to me last year they quit selling them one week in advance afraid you wouldnt get the tickets in the mail. You should be ok I have never really seen it sold out in any of the corrals there is always a space

MRS. XTREME 03-18-2009 11:38 AM

Ok I lied... we WILL NOT be there ...

We are going to the drag strip this weekend :crazy03::crazy03:

You alL have FUN AND BE SAFE... TAKE LOTS OF PICS !!!!

GGEEZZZ,,, It was bugging me so I called again today. They said the new employee that was telling everyone that poor information was scolded because it was WRONG. I guess I will have to decide if I will attend or not now that I can pre purchase them. We will see what work has to offer before I take the plunge on the tickets....

Nice to see you and Greg http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...es/cheers2.gif

Ms. AntiVenom 03-23-2009 01:14 PM

:lmao: I was so happy to see you guys. It was an awesome time. Ive got a ton of photos I need to add.

shakedown067 03-23-2009 02:18 PM

I didn't run into anyone. I never did make it down to the Corral. Damn shame, but I was all over the place. Here are the photos I took.

http://gwatdesigns.com/sebring-2009/

It was a great time as always!

Yellow 03-23-2009 03:22 PM

We do not spend much time in the Corral. We walk around and go everything both days. Some how we always end up seeing tons of people we know.

Thanks for sharing your pictures.

Ms. AntiVenom 03-23-2009 03:25 PM

I swear I ran into Kim everytime I slightly ventured out of the corral..lol She was on her way to somewhere else..

Those were nice pics!

Hey, you did run into somebody, you just didn't know it. Nice meeting you and your gang.

Kenny

shakedown067 03-23-2009 04:22 PM

Hey Kenny! It was a pleasure meeting ya'll as well. I should have known when you said you where from Tallahassee that'd you'd be on the corvetteflorida forum. Did you get my email with the photos?

KBlanke 03-23-2009 04:29 PM

Just checked my email and I did get them. Nice job on the rotor shot.

shakedown067 03-23-2009 04:47 PM

Thanks! Too bad the car isn't all in frame...I'm pretty happy for the first time doing rotor shots though. Judging by the rest of the photos, I think I just happened to have gotten lucky. But I'll take it. :dancer01:
